Started with SMBX 1.3 and finished on SMBX 1.4.4 - I have been working on this (My First Project) for the past 2 years. It was an on and off again project for me. Could only edit levels when I found the time. But it's finally here and I am happy to share it with you all. I do not claim to be a super expert at level-making but I do think I was able to come up with something enjoyable enough to play. This is just a game I made for fun. Something I would like playing so I hope you like it too.

- Feels like playing the classic games ranging from SMB 1,2,3 and SMW, SM64, NSMB.- 9 Worlds.- 38 Levels.- 114 Stars to collect.- Play as Luigi and Mario (Get all 114 stars to play as Toad and Princess and Bonus levels).- Hub Style using the Castle like Mario64 (No world map).

Mushroom Kingdom never seems to have a day off as Bowser has once again kidnapped the Princess and taken over the Castle. If that was not enough, he trapped 114 Stars within the paintings. The only way for Mario and Luigi to save them all is to find all the Stars to open Bowsers painting. They will have to go through all 8 worlds filled with enemies of all kinds in order to save the day once more.

I have been working on this game for ages. A lot of graphics that I used, I either forgot about the artist, forgot to note it down or lost track of the info. So if you know about any of the graphics that you see, please let me know and provide a link to the source for proof if possible. I will then gladly add the name to the credits.

To report a bug, simply reply to this thread or PM me. I will do my best to fix. Please describe the bug as best as you can (include video and/or screenshots if possible).

- Known Bugs that I cannot fix -

1. If you cross a checkpoint, finish the level and come back in the same level, even if you finished it, it will start you at the checkpoint anyway. To fix this, save your game and exit to the main menu. Come back in the game and go back to level and it will start at the beginning. This is a bug with the engine.

- Known Bugs that I will fix in Version 1.3 -

- None Yet

It's a problem I also noticed in SMBX. Once you beat the level BUT you didn't get all Star Coins and you happen to have crossed the checkpoint, you will have to save the game and exit to the main menu. Come back in game and go back to level to start from the beginning ;)

Just move your save file to the updated version.Updated the screenshots in the OP.Updated Download Link in the OP to Verison 1.2 - Or Download now here https://puu.sh/xsYjG/372de5cb4b.zip

I kept debating if I should have the "Star Coins" text. I think I may remove it in the next patch now that I have another person's opinion on it and an experienced one at that. Thanks Yoshi and hope you enjoy the game if you play it. Remember to use the core files I included as they contain custom files Thanks for the kind words!

I played ur episode or to be exact 50% of it because it kinda got boring in world 2 and so on, I think this is a great average episode because there are many flaws in the levels and there are no new gimmicks or something new. But if you focus more on level design and how to make your levels more fun and interesting , your second episode may be more than average , it would be must play.(please don't take my opinion as an offense)

I take no offence at all Thank you for being honest. I started making this just for me. I didn't even care about publishing this at first and when I got done making it (just for me) I thought "Meh! Why not share it with others" I was not trying to impress at all and it's impossible to come up with new concepts as everyone did what they could already with SMBX and its possibilities. I just wanted to play something that felt classic A lot of people loved this game via youtube and original SMBX forums too so it got me pumped to actually try to make something interesting and different for my next episode since this time I'll make an episode for people, not for me ;) My next project is all custom graphics and wayyy better level design (Can't say anything as I don't want anyone to steal the idea heh). Remember, this episode was not made to be revolutionary, it was meant to feel like playing classics for those like me who love that :D Sorry it was not for you ;) Thanks again for your honest opinion.
